"I want to talk," I said bluntly.
Yes, it was a pretty straightforward thing to say, but Wufei has been acting more and more withdrawn and out of character, and not to mention dressing exceedingly out of season. Black pantsuit, long sleeves - in the middle of summer? Alarm bells suddenly ring in my head. Ever since he established an intimate relationship with Duo, Wufei has never been the same. Take now, for example. He never tensed when anyone touched him, and not to mention he didn't have to get assurance from anyone to talk to someone or not.
Once he reluctantly nodded, after verifying whether Duo was watching or not, I stopped myself from bombarding him with questions and demands. I think half of the Perfect Soldier died at that, but the other half came up with tactics on how to approach the target...subject...problem. If I was to approach him up front, I'd most likely be talking to a brick wall, as he'd probably withdraw back into his shattered shell. I therefore planned on a diversion - asking sub-questions, quickly building up to the main one. Why...
"Aren't you hot?"
He looked at me as if to say, 'What's the real reason you're here?' I wouldn't blame him. Me, the stoic Heero Yuy, asking about someone's well-being?
He looked away, over towards the garden once again, before answering, "No."
He was obviously lying. Perspiration was clinging onto his forehead like ice on the spouting [1].
"Chang, you're clad from head to toe in black and it's 95°[2]. Why wouldn't you be hot?"
"Because...I'm not."
I sighed. This was going to be harder than I thought. But it's nice to know that he's still stubborn as ever.
"Ok then. Why are you dressed like that?"
He tensed but still looked over towards the garden. "...Because I want to," he said hesitantly.
"Stop lying, Wufei, and tell me why?" I demanded softly.
He turned his head sharply, his onyx eyes meeting my own blue. They carried so much emotion, but one stood out from the rest - anger.
"Don't ask questions that you know you'll get an unexpected answer from. You don't know what you're getting yourself into, so stop it," he hissed in an angry whisper, as not to draw attention to himself. He pushed me away as he went to get up, but I grabbed his arm, pulling him down and made him look at me. He winced and his eyes shone with anger, pain and fear.
"I know what I'm getting myself into, but why do you let Duo do this to you? I thought you were stronger than him?"
"Obviously I thought wrong!" He struggled in my grasp, wanting to get away but I held tight.
Our voices were quiet but angry and determined. I wasn't going to back down and he wasn't going to give in. Maybe that's what I loved so much about him. Oops. I feel myself go internally red with that thought. Very unHeero-like.
"Wufei. You are stronger than him! Why do you let him do this to you? Why don't you fight back? Or better still, why don't you leave him?"
He ceased his struggling and looked at me sadly. I could tell he was trying hard to stop the tears from coming. My heart cringed.
"Heero, it's not as easy as it sounds. He knows me well enough as I know him. I can't leave him because he'll know where I'll go and he'll come after me! I don't fight back because I can't! And I let him do this...it because...because he..." he choked on the rest of the sentence and bowed his head. I knew I got wanted out of him, even if he didn't finish.
"Wufei..." I started.
He looked at me. "Haven't you done enough already? I'll be lucky if he lets me rest tonight because I'm talking to you! Not to mention that I'd be dead if he found out what we were talking about! Go away! You've done the damage now! You got your information!"
I knew inside that only half of what he said was true. But Duo would never kill one he loves so much, would he?
"Wufei. Go to someone who actually loves you. He is doing you no good even if he does say that he loves you. Leaving Duo would do us...you a wor-"
"Us?" he cut in. I hesitated. 'Shit.'
He smiled sadly at me. "That's the reason Duo is like this. He envies you because he knows you're the only person who can break his lock on me. You're the Key.[3]"
I notice, out of the corner of my eye, that Duo is getting out the pool, steam literally pouring out of his ears. I look back at Wufei, who is looking at Duo. I take this as a cue to leave and dash into the house. I need to think.
"You're the Key." His words echo through my mind. I have to help him. He knows, I know, Duo knows. I'm glad that Quatre and Trowa don't know. I don't want them getting involved.
It's easy to tell why Duo is doing this. Duo is using his 'love' as an advantage and 'love' is something Wufei lost when his colony blew up. Something he deemed as 'weak' until Duo came along. I think he now sees it as a battle of the strongest. That's what Duo's shown him. He bent Wufei around his little finger and broke him. But I'm going to show him otherwise. I'm going to mend Wufei. I'll break the lock.
Mission accepted.

What does a woman do
What does a woman do
Who can't tell the difference
between animal and man
[1]Y'know, when ice hangs off the side of the house, window sills or spouting?
[2]Eh...I'm from NZ, where the temp. is measured in Celsius and not Fahrenheit, so this temperature may not seem...hot. [3]*grins* I had to use that! Read chapter one if you don't get it.
A/N: O.O Wow. Long chapter. @_@ Writing Heero is kinda hard...especially when you can't even think of the word 'target'. -_-; Gah! Where in seven Hells did I come up with that last bit? o_O? Now that is something OOC...no?
Good? Bad? Like it? Hate it? R&R…or you can wait until the end.
